BOSTON (WHDH) - A Delta flight encountered an “unmanned aircraft” in the sky near Boston’s Logan International Airport on Wednesday morning, officials said.
The crew of Delta flight 5521 reported the encounter around 11 a.m. as it traveled about 15 miles northeast of the airport, according to Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Jim Peters.
The aircraft was being flown at about 3,000 feet and never made contact with the plane, Massachusetts State Police said.
The flight, which took off from Philadelphia International Airport, landed safely in Boston.
The crew did not have to take any evasive action and no injuries were reported, Peters said.
An investigating is ongoing.
